El Paso Zoo Library


This page gives staff and volunteers the opportunity to see what we have in our library. To check out a book contact Rick LoBello at 521-1850 or by sending an email to lobellorl@elpasotexas.gov. Most of our library materials are currently being stored at various locations in the Zoo. We eventually plan to move the library to our new Discovery Center late in 2007. Many more books and multimedia will be added in the near future.
